They are quick enough to leave the boy racers wondering what engine you
have inside.
They don't handle very well so don't try and use the power they have.

Current production Smart is 0-60 in 16.2 or 12.9 seconds depending on
engine. (Not the Brabus or the Turbo)

Last year's Fiesta 1.25 (hardly a hot car) is about 14 seconds.

0-60 is irrelevant around town.


And a quick dig suggests the Ford is a little cheaper, despite the extra
seats.

That doesn't surprise me, costs more than my car though.
I would not buy a smart, I don't like them.
